Parklaanflat

This first residential high-rise in Rotterdam was realised by architect Van Tijen, at his own risk. When it was built, the structure was experimental. The steel skeleton guaranteed a flexible floor plan for the luxurious flats, each of which covered an entire floor. Van Tijen himself lived in the penthouse for some time, where a spacious roof terrace offers a view of the Maas.

Designed by: W. van Tijen (1931-1933)
